Introduction to the Gallery
I have admired the art form of Photography for decades now. The power of that medium be it in B/W or color, grain or pixel, abstract or realism, staged or found is great and so varied. To convey both intellectual and emotional content makes photography a child in the family of arts. An exciting young mind filling with possibilities.

Photography is another way, another tool to bring an image to viewing..

In evolving as a photographer, reading Edward Weston, seeing his art, feeling excited and opened, viewing Minor White's abstractions and liberating text, hearing about, and seeing Robert Heiniken's work, and always photographing, I came to see myself as a documentary photographer. I photograph "paintings" I see everywhere, find and discover. Then I frame the "paintings" and present the images.

I think of myself as a painter using photography to paint with - in short, I photograph paintings discovered in the Museum Without Walls. We live in an ever evolving museum with all the horrors and delights to be seen or ignored, but there they are.
